We remain on course to deliver an increase in the dividend per share, an increase in adjusted profit before tax for the financial year to 31 March 2012 and to deliver on its key operational goals.

We don’t seek to maximise profitability in any one year but to maintain and develop a sustainable business that serves customers, employs people and pays dividends over the long term.

We provide services from street lighting maintenance to gas storage and telecoms networks, all designed to help customers from large local authorities to householders meet their energy and utility needs.

We believe that sustainable energy supply is about providing the energy and related products and services that people actually need in the low carbon environment of the future.

We welcome enquiries from professional journalists and provide a 24-hour service for urgent enquiries.
